Brian #1: The Basics of Python Packaging in Early 2023 Jay Qi Good description of a minimal-ish pyproject.toml file, which includes a build backend and project metadata. That’s all you need for a Python-only project. Discussion of how to choose a build backend. Mostly it’s baed on extra features you might want, like hatchling’s include/exclude features for source distributions. Some discussion of frontend choices. Nice discussion of non-Python-only builds. Specifically, if you need to compile C or C++ extensions, you can use scikit-build-core, or meson-python, or setuptools. Related:
